From its beginnings, Howard Park has made Riesling from the Great Southern wine region of Western Australia. Riesling is demanding, sensitive yet tough enough to thrive in the vagaries of this cool climate. Wines made of Riesling grapes are exceptionally revealing and critical of the environment in which they grow and the human interactions engaged to create them.
Magnums of Riesling have exceptional capacity for long term ageing.
Mount Barker
TASTING NOTE
Vintage
A brilliant, pale lemon in colour with a many and varied mix of fresh and poached fruit notes. The lively citrus zest and green pear, the rich lemon curd and quince give great dimension to the bouquet. These same generous yet fresh flavours build on the palate which is textured with a soft, talcy mineral note and driven by the line of fine citrus acidity. This wine has distinct fruit notes, a warmth in its ripeness, length of flavour and finely balanced acidity.
Food Match
Drink with snapper sashimi, green chilli, finger lime and galangal.
Recommended Cellaring
Drink now or cellar for up to 20 years to enjoy the nuanced flavours yet to come.
